7/3/2009, I have a badminton appointment with my friends. 9am-12pm. The day before it, I slept at around 12.30am, and I woke up at around 7 something. After get myself prepared, I set off to the badminton court. 12 of us, two badminton courts. Tracing back, I found that I haven't really move my body so much ever since the beginning of the CNY. Anyway, I have to admit that it is a joyful morning. After we are done with the badminton, our next activity of the day is movie watching. We are going to watch Love Matters at CS at 2.30. A movie that I awaited for a long time, and finally it is broadcast at the local cinema. Between, my head started to protest, wanting a rest. I started to feel the headache. For god sake! I am going for a movie this afternoon and you protest?! Without hesitating, I quickly head off to my house.
After a warm yet comfortable bath, I sat down in front of my computer, log in into my facebook account. Suddenly, my phone rang. A friend of mine rang me up and told me that someone broke into his house and all the cash in the house has been stolen. My jaw was dangling in the mid air as I heard it. Sounds unbelievable, but it is true. At the moment, a thought came through my mind: is that stealing is the only way of surviving in this world?
Between, he also told me some of the ridiculous things that happened when he called the police. He called up the police, report to the police of what is going on in his house, but, the response he got from the police had dumbfounded him. The police ask him to go to the police station himself to make a report then only the police will go to his house to investigate. So, my friend asked the attendant on the phone why can't they just come straight away to his house? Why he has to go to the police station to make a report then only the police can come? the police said that this is to prevent prank calls. Fine. Nothing he could do until he reach the police station. I have to admit that those prank calls are really annoying. In fact, I experienced it before. Way back to a year ago when I was duty at the hospital. When we reached the site, there was nobody! This implies how serious is the moral values of the people nowadays. But, the police shouldn't do so. They should have asked somebody of their partners to drive to the site and assist the victims. try to imagine if a victims who has suffered from a gun shot, are you expecting him to go to the police station to make a report of who shot him? Rubbish! Don't forget, part of their salary is the money that comes from the public (summons paid and taxes). They have to do their job.
I would like to say something about those who made the prank calls. They might think it is fun, and I strongly believe that they are doing so to fulfill their weird desire. Well, I suspect that they are most probably psychologically imbalance. This bunch of idiot most probably doesn't know that every prank call that they made is actually a waste of money. Please, wake up, open your eyes, look at the reality. Stop it while you can.
I had run out of idea of how to continue this article. If you had experienced any of the similar case above, please feel free to share it. Or if you have any comment, please do not hesitate to share it with us. Thanks a lot.
